As much as it was obvious that you were taking a shot at a webcomic I happen to like, I must say that my broad sense of humor found much enjoyment in this which is probably more than I can say for anyone who cusses you out after this is linked to on the CAD forums.

EDIT: Speaking of which, I decided to venture onto the forums there and found that there was already a thread on this video. I ended up finding this little gem.

"i like him, hes a funny guy...but theres no reason for him to make fun of something just cause he doesnt like it."

I thought that was the point of most of Yahtzee's reviews?

Also, Buckley himself locked the thread and said that everyone is entitled to their opinion. That kinda negates your whole drama argument now.

Absolutely titslappingly awesome. What a great break from gaming reviews, and I totally agree with you on all points. It's about damned time somebody as public as Yahtzee took on the towering monstrosity that is CAD. ... and others too, I guess.

I still read CAD, it's still worth a laugh from time to time, but it's not nearly what it used to be.

Above all else, from what he writes, Buckley seems to be a total ass. I always tolerated it when the comic was good and funny, but now, I am slowly starting to move it down the short list of comics I read regularly.

It must be said, Buckley is a tosser and I am starting to seriously wonder about his sadist or not since he openly admitted he'd planned this miscarriage storyline since he started the engagement storyline, which was two years ago. Now, I realise it is a comic and therefore not real, but I was under the illusion that CAD was supposed to be funny (mostly) and if he can nurture a storyline like that for two years for a supposedly funny webcomic, he's just fucking sick. Time to call in the boys with the straight jackets and massive erec...I mean, syringes.

I'm tolerant of weak humour, but even I admitted CAD was pretty much beyond hope when the dramalicious miscarriage storyline was carried out. And Explosm's parody of it was one of the most entertaining things I've seen in a little while.

... On that note, a very subtle potshot this video. A very entertaining, very subtle potshot.

Well despite the overt referencing of CAD's recent storyline (and I'm sure Buckley is already quivering with excitement thinking of the witty, wordy retort he's going to come up with in a comic posted 6-8 months from now) the general idea really can be applied to every gaming-related webcomic there is - Penny Arcade included, but I think they grandfather out by actually being the grandfathers of gaming webcomics and generally not sucking.

I need to sleep now, and I'll be surprised if there's less than ten pages of hate-slinging at CAD from people who've probably never bothered to read it by the time I wake up. Not that I'm saying it isn't justified or anything, but... actually, there is no but. Commence posting of 4chan memes.
